Gaylord Springs Golf Links
About
The Cumberland River gave birth to the Scottish links-style Gaylord Springs Golf Links, a par-72 golf course that provides 18 testing holes that border limestone bluffs and wetlands protected by the feds. The golf course, designed by the former U.S. Open and PGA Champion Larry Nelson, has collected several distinctions over its days.
The big draw on the Gaylord Springs Golf Links is the signature fourth hole, home to the hundred-plus-year-old springhouse that gives the golf course its name.
After a round on the Gaylord Springs Golf Links, head back to the 43,000-square-foot antebellum-style clubhouse to shop, dine, and take in the views of the golf course.

Can’t beat it in February!
For the first round of golf in 2022, 40mph winds, this course did not disappoint.
Well laid out and very fast greens.
The best !
I love this course more than any other in middle Tennessee!
Enjoyable day
Great to get a day to play In February. Greens in remarkable shape. Bermuda fairways browned out but still very playable. Very challenging from the back tees.
Should be closed for construction
Course layout wouldve been nice but there was massive construction taking place throughout the back 9. Literally tractors and people working in the middle of the fairway on 14-16. Course was clearly under renovations, which is completely normal given this time of year, but they should’ve made patrons aware of the construction prior to booking or even closed the course down temporarily. Also the pace of play was terrible. 12:30pm tee time and it took us 5 hours to play 15 holes. Couldn’t finished the round bc the sun went down.
A hidden gem
Great layout and fair to all players with the spread of tee boxes
Overall, another quality experience!
Aside from being slowed by a couple groups in front of us, atypical of every other round we’ve played here, the course was in great shape (for the time of year) and the staff were friendly and helpful as usual. Overall, we had another great experience playing this course… definitely recommend it!!
Always a challenging, fun round
One of my favorite courses in the area, even in late fall, early winter. Course was definitely playable and the greens were excellent, but I do think they should adjust offseason prices. An exceptionally enjoyable round of golf in prime season, just a slight drop-off as weather and conditions change.
IA truly unique, fantastic golf course. Our first time playing it in windy conditions made it incredibly tough to score on. The hybrid grass greens were very very fast. The condition of the course was perfect, the clubhouse/pro shop was great. Very friendly staff. A must play!
Very nice and challenging
Course was in great shape minus a few spots on the back 9 greens. Played in just under 4 hours. Would definitely here play again.
Thanksgiving trip
Great course. Great layout. Fast greens! Would recommend and play again next time I’m in town.
Late November play
Conditions from frost delayed start for more than hour and half. All of the staff from inside to out were so attentive to concerns and took the time to keep us updated on status as we got plenty of practice at the range and pitching and putting greens. As for course other than cart path only slowing play there was only 3-4 times where play came to a little delay.
Challenging and fun
This is a great, mostly target, layout in near perfect condition. I will be back everytime I'm visiting in Nashville.
